Bio
A Certain Ratio (aka ACR or A.C.R.) are a post-punk/funk band from Manchester, UK. Formed in the late 1970s, they were one of the bands (along with Gang of Four and The Pop Group) who forged the new musical hybrid which became known as punk-funk, a style which fused the energy and aggression of punk rock with the rhythms and musicianship of funk and soul.

Emperor Machine is their official support for the UK tour. He, a one-man Soundsystem, and the group collaborated on the tune (called ACR vs. Emporer Machine) earlier this year. All rubber bass, slices of slick Studio 54 guitars, ACR, and VHS intermingling along with obsessive-compulsive 80s electronic undercurrents.
